Note: MinFileCache and MaxFileCache settings are often created by third-party memory management utilities. We have found that most of these utilities do not improve performance and can sometimes cause stability problems, so we advise you not to use any of them.

Upgrade Disk Drives of disk space available on this system, just 11.8 GB (21%) is still available

Unusually low disk performance

Drive C has a cached speed of 107.04 megabytes per second.

Drive D has a cached speed of 108.8 megabytes per second.

Drive E has a cached speed of 109.53 megabytes per second.

Drive F has a cached speed of 109.67 megabytes per second.

For comparison, systems with the same CPU, clock speed, and memory size as this one have an average cached speed of 222 MB/s .


looks like they don't know of the win98 vchache bug.

11 gig free is just so unuseable...lol

how do you get a 222mb/s speed over a 100mb/s bus?

51696 2002-05-31 09:46:00 thanks for that good to compare.

Cached speed 122.9 MB/s (55%) 124.26 MB/s (56%) 126.54 MB/s (57%) 124.6 MB/s (56%)

Uncached speed 9.08 MB/s (203%) 4.21 MB/s (94%) 6.38 MB/s (143%) 8.04 MB/s (180%)

what i don't understand is how can they get a cached speed higher than 133mb/s (fastest ide harddrive poss)???
